For the first time managers, who are not sure of themselves in the new role, they typically tend to follow their role models. The One Minute Manager book serves as a role model and good reinforcement for those who have not yet seen one. It provides a useful model for stimulating the minds of everyone in the organization in order to accomplish more. It reveals three very practical secrets: one minute goal setting, one minute praises and one minute criticisms. Goal setting is about making sure employees understand perfectly what their duties are. The praises and criticisms are the managers acknowledging that the employees are doing their jobs or not. It is a short and concise easy read for those who are either currently managing people or wanting to manage people.
